Lexham English Bible

⁹ Now^[a] he^[b] heard concerning Tirhakah the king of Cush, saying, “He has set out to fight against^[c] you.”

When^[d] he heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying, ¹⁰ “You shall say this to Hezekiah, king of Judah: ‘Do not let your God in whom you trust in him deceive you by saying, “Jerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.” ¹¹ Look! you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands to destroy them, and you—shall you be delivered? ¹² Did the gods of the nations that my predecessors^[e] destroyed deliver them—Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the sons of Eden who were in Telassar? ¹³ Where is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, Hena, or^[f] Ivvah?’”
